Fighting To Protect Your Future
Being charged with a criminal offense — even a misdemeanor — can dim your prospects for a bright future. You could lose your driver's license, your security clearance, your job, and child custody or visitation rights. With more than 25 years' experience as a criminal defense attorney, I know how to aggressively defend you against criminal charges of all types and severity.
Drug Charges
Drug charges can negatively impact your career and family life. I help defend clients from across Northern Virginia and Fairfax County who have been charged with possession and/or distribution of:
DWI and Reckless Driving Charges
Driving while intoxicated (DWI) is a serious charge. Was this your first offense? Do you have more than two prior DWI charges on your record? I routinely help minimize the consequences of these charges for my clients.
In the Commonwealth of Virginia, a reckless driving charge can be hard to avoid. It can reflect poor driving or a speed limit violation. Either way, the penalties are severe. You could lose your driver's license for a year. As one of Northern Virginia's most experienced defense attorneys, I will argue to negotiate your charge to a lesser penalty or see if it can be dismissed altogether.
Embezzlement
The charge for embezzlement, or selling property that was entrusted to you, can be either a misdemeanor or felony. The effects of your charge can include a harsh sentencing outcome. I can help you understand the facts of your case and determine the best course of action.
Juvenile Defense
If your child is charged with a crime, how will it affect his or her future education or employment? For more than 25 years, I have been providing sound juvenile defense strategies to help minimize the legal and lifelong consequences of serious criminal charges.
You Were Charged — Now What?
Being charged with a serious criminal offense does not automatically mean that your future is dramatically compromised. I have prepared a basic list of things to know when you are pulled over or charged with a crime. These tips can make a difference.
